Studies into psilocybin therapy

Psilocybin therapy is truffle therapy

Here in the Netherlands, psilocybin therapy is actually truffle therapy, since psilocybin is still illegal, but truffles containing psilocybin are not. To be truly accurate, by the way, it is not even psilocybin that causes the psychedelic effect, but psilocin.

After the conversion of psilocybin to psilocin, this psychedelic acquires its hallucinogenic effect. Furthermore, psilocin closely resembles serotonin and exhibits activity on many of the same serotonergic receptors. Many of the therapeutic applications of psilocybin/psilocin are aimed at conditions in which low serotonin levels play a role. Additionally, higher doses of psilocybin can contribute to new neural connections in the brain, allowing neurodegenerative disorders to be (partially) treated.

Ongoing research into psilocybin

The number of studies into psilocybin has been on the rise for years, even though it is not a patented drug. This fact clearly shows that the potential of psilocybin is enormous. The currently ongoing studies utilize psilocybin for:

• Alcoholism (AUD, alcohol use disorder)
• Smoking addiction
• Opioid addiction
• Major depression (depressive disorder major)
• Treatment-resistant depression
• Anxiety symptoms
• Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
• Body Dysmorphic Disorders (BDD)
• Anorexia
• Alzheimer
• Parkinson
• Migraine
• Cluster headache

The results are promising.

The results of the pilots and the already completed studies are promising and effective. The research being conducted focuses solely on the effects of psilocybin. We use psilocybin sessions in combination with lifestyle coaching so that we address health on multiple levels simultaneously. Here at Triptherapie, we can only provide anecdotal evidence regarding the effectiveness of our psilocybin sessions. We achieve good results primarily in depression treatments using psilocybin. Additionally, we use it for addictions, burnout, anxiety disorders, and low self-esteem.

More research into psilocybin

There is still much more research to come into psilocybin. Some currently theoretical medicinal effects of psilocybin are the following interesting topics:

• Psilocybin to wake coma patients
• Psilocybin for autism and Asperger's
• Psilocybin for ADD and ADHD
• Psilocybin for MS

Undergoing a psilocybin session

Would you like to do a psilocybin session? Preparation is very important, and it is good to ask yourself why you want to do a session. It is also wise to improve the current neurochemistry in the brain so that the session goes better and has more impact. Furthermore, the dosage plays a major role. Lower dosages are often used for individuals with anxiety issues than for other sessions. Do you want a personalized plan regarding neurochemistry, preparation, and a follow-up discussion? Then choose trip therapy. Do you just want to do a session without these extras? Then choose a truffle ceremony.
